"What's so striking about 2009 - and I haven't seen this kind of excitement since 1982 - is the quality of the cru bourgeois and the petits vins and the generic Bordeaux that are available.In short,2009 is the greatest vintage I have tasted in Bordeaux since 1982,of which it is a modern day version but greatly improved.
Just like in 1990 and 1982,the low acidity,the very ripe fruit,the high glycerin levels from the elevated alcohols,and the stunning concentration of fruit from low yields,will give most of these wines incredible appeal in their youth".
Robert Parker. (The Wine Advocate. #188. April 2010)
"A wine that is just getting into its stride,this has ripe black fruits under its firm-yet-sweet tannins.The combination means the wine is both rich and structured,layering the tannins with fruit and acidity.Powerful and concentrated,this should age for 4-5 years".

Roger Voss. (The Wine Enthusiast.February 2013. Tasting note on the 2009 Senilhac).
"The 2009 Chateau Senilhac offers fresh notes of blackberries and currant with spice,moist earth and some menthol mixed in.Plush yet firm with lots of character.The finish is satisfying,leaving behind a mouth of blackberry fruit.(Best 2013-2017)".
(88 Points).
